It's 10.00hrs a nice sunny morning
somewhere 200 miles off the African Coast Position 25.20.00N
18.52.00W.
Just had the first cup of tea, I was
sleeping till 0900hrs, we have to have a watch system over night, so we have
decided that Non sleeps 2100hrs to midnight, then I sleep midnight to
0300hrs, Yvonne again at 0300hrs to 0600hrs, then I sleep 0600hrs till
0900hrs. It seems to be working and the next day or so we should get in a
routine. We can catnap during the day if needs be, but at least we get a
good 6hrs in our cot if nothing happens that needs the attention of two
people.
We have a rule that we never leave
the cockpit when the other is not on deck awake.
Yvonne just called and said she has
seen a brown, our first sighting of anything on the trip so far. No flying fish
on deck so no breakfast!
We made some water yesterday, now
we're running the generator to charge the batteries and baking some bread
for the next two days. Then breakfast and roll
call.
